Nestled in the vibrant market town of Holsworthy, this former railway cottage exudes a unique charm and presents significant renovation potential. Originally believed to have functioned as a shop, the property boasts characterful accommodations with many original features still intact, making it an interesting canvas for modern updates.
The entrance opens into a cozy living room, where a multi-fuel stove is set within a traditional fireplace, creating a warm focal point for the space. At the back of the property, the kitchen provides convenient access to a courtyard garden. This outdoor area includes an outside WC, storage shed, and a classic coal bunker, all offering possibilities for enhancement or repurposing.
On the upper level, you'll find a spacious double bedroom along with a bathroom that includes both a bath and shower overhead. While the interior would benefit from some modernization to align with contemporary tastes, this aspect provides an excellent opportunity for first-time buyers or investors looking to add value through renovations.
Holsworthy itself is known for its lively atmosphere thanks to its weekly Pannier Market and range of shops that encompass both well-known national brands and local businesses. Essential amenities such as a Waitrose supermarket and additional conveniences like gas stations and cafes are all within reach. For recreational activities, residents can enjoy facilities including a heated swimming pool, sports hall, bowling green, cricket club, and an 18-hole golf course.
The property’s location is advantageous for those who appreciate both rural tranquility and accessibility; Bude on the North Cornish coast is only about nine miles away while Okehampton and Dartmoor National Park are around 20 miles distant. The town of Launceston, rich in history as Cornwall's ancient capital, lies just 14 miles away. With Holsworthy situated in “Ruby Country”—famed for its local Red Ruby cattle—this area offers not only historical significance but also picturesque landscapes ideal for outdoor enthusiasts.
